Fig. 2

Immunolocalization and immunoexpression of the AR in the ovaries of mice on CR (a, c, e) and in the ovaries of mice fed ad libitum (b, d, f). One can see a similar expression of the AR in granulosa cells (black arrow) and ovarian surface epithelium cells (black arrowhead) in ovaries of mice on CR (a, c, e) and in ovaries of mice fed ad libitum (b, d, f). Expression of the AR in interstitial cells is shown by black asterisks in ovaries of mice fed ad libitum (b) and in the ovaries of mice on CR (a). Red asterisks indicate expression of AR in endothelial cells in the ovaries of mice fed ad libitum (f) and in the ovaries of mice on CR (a, e). There was no immunoreactions to the AR in theca cells (red arrow) in the ovaries of mice fed ad libitum (b, d). There was very weak expression of the AR in theca cells (red arrow) in the ovaries of mice on CR (a, c). Objective magnification: a, b, e, f, x20; c, d, x40
